The burnout epidemic
In the financial services sector, burnout has emerged as a critical issue, threatening employee well-being and organizational efficiency. Recent data highlights that an alarming 77% of employees have experienced burnout, with profound consequences including diminished productivity, increased job turnover, and severe mental health issues.
The rise of remote and hybrid work has compounded these challenges. A 2022 study revealed that 31% of professionals in banking and finance are considering exiting the industry due to the relentless stress, underscoring the urgent need for interventions to address this pervasive problem.

Designing a solution
At Thrive Global, I managed the design and development of a web platform to integrate health and well-being resources into the workflows of over 200,000 employees at the largest bank in the United States. We focused on three core themes:
Project leadership
I oversaw four internal teams, utilizing a structured approach with 10-day sprints and regular scrum meetings to keep the project on track. Following each deliverable, I conducted a detailed retrospective to analyze our successes and pinpoint opportunities for improvement, promoting continuous team development and collaboration.
